Trump fires James Comey

By Somerset Nelson | 21 South News
President Donald Trump fired FBI director James Comey on Tuesday according to the reporting from Breitbart News

In a statement from the press office, the White House said Trump acted on the recommendation of Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Borenstein.

“The FBI is one of our Nation’s most cherished and respected institutions and today will mark a new beginning for our crown jewel of law enforcement,” Trump said in a statement announcing Comey’s termination.

In a letter to the president Tuesday, Sessions wrote that after an evaluation, he had concluded that “a fresh start is needed at the leadership of the FBI.”

After firing of director Comey, a Facebook user Rick Schmore posted ‘ James Comey
has been fired, Maybe now Obummer and the Clintons will get the justice they so rightly deserve.

I am no fan of Comey. I have always believed he should have been relived of his duties/position as a F.B.I. Director; because of his behavior/judgment during our last presidential elections, but the timing of now, runs chills down my very spine.

Below the Attorney General and the Assistant Attorney General details their reasons why he should be fired. And the reasons are difficult, if not impossible to refute, but again; the timing… Suspicious is not just some word, Howard A. Sinclair says on Facebook.

On the other hand, Democrats say the firing of FBI Director James Comey raises serious questions.

“This is nothing less than Nixonian,” said Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, a longtime senior Judiciary Committee member, in a statement. “The president’s action, and the way it has been handled, is shocking. No one should accept President Trump’s absurd justification that he is now concerned that FBI Director Comey treated Secretary Clinton unfairly.” according to the NPR news reporting.

“That’s a great news all day. President must be fired him since he took office on January 20,2017.” Cindy Cunningham tweeted.
